Conversation with Brea Dorsett, Founder of Pink Leopard and Fiona Patten, Former Member of Parliament (2014 - 2022) who was pivotal in the decriminalisation of sex work through the inquiry she led.

Brea's wisdom and insights (aged 25) are gut-wrenching and extraordinary. Having grown up in Shepparton, she first experienced homelessness aged 12 and then again during Year 12. Succeeding against all the odds, she went onto university and moved to Melbourne, where she now works at HoMie. Brea is a proud sex worker. Brea and Fiona both believe that dignity, empowerment and opportunity should exist in the sex industry as it does in any other workplace. Join us to hear what it will take to make the world’s oldest profession safe and stigma-free. 

“Indeed, I may be the first former sex worker to be elected to a Parliament anywhere in this country although no doubt the clients of sex workers have been elected in much greater numbers before me.” Fiona Patten
